Lead Paint Abatement
in Burlington, Vermont

Licensed Lead Paint Removal in Burlington

Burlington has one of the highest concentrations of pre-1978 housing in Vermont. The Old North End, Hill Section, South End, Five Sisters, and downtown neighborhoods are filled with Victorian-era homes, converted multi-family buildings, and student rental housing that frequently contain lead-based paint on windows, doors, trim, and walls.

Vermont's lead paint law (18 V.S.A. Chapter 38) requires landlords to perform Essential Maintenance Practices (EMPs) and address lead hazards in rental properties. Burlington's own lead program provides additional funding for qualifying properties. AAA Abatement LC holds Vermont Lead Contractor License Lead-Co-TH-000027 and has active bids with the Burlington Lead Program, demonstrating our commitment to the Burlington market.
